Bill Ackman is going to be featured in a documentary on Herbalife at the Tribeca Film Festival

Hedge fund titan Bill Ackman's years-long crusade
against Herbalife is heading to the silver screen in
April.
At this year's Tribeca Film Festival, Ackman and his
big short bet will be featured in a documentary film called
"Betting on
Zero," directed and written by Ted Braun.

Braun followed Ackman to some Herbalife-related meetings
and events. He was also interviewed for the documentary.

Ackman's taken some extraordinary steps in his (so far
unsuccessful) attempt to expose the company as a "fraud."

Allegations of corporate criminality and high-stakes Wall Street
vendettas swirl throughout this riveting financial docu-thriller.
Controversial hedge fund titan Bill Ackman is on a crusade to
expose global nutritional giant Herbalife as the largest pyramid
scheme in history while Herbalife execs claim Ackman is a market
manipulator out to bankrupt them and make a killing off his
billion dollar short.

He believes that the company is operating as a "pyramid
scheme" that targets poor people, particularly from minority
populations. It's his contention that regulators, specifically
the Federal Trade Commission, will shut the company down.
